writes: My friend thinks she might be pregnant. She and her boyfriend had sex when she was on her period and he didn't use anything. Was it better or worse that they did it while she was still on her period? Is there a high risk that she could be pregnant? Please help and explain everything clearly.

Any woman can get pregnant at any time. It is not wise to practise unprotected sex at any time and whoever you are. She should go to the doctor immediately. I know plenty of girls who have got pregnant when they had sex during their period. Timing, withdrawal- it's all nonsense. Contraception was created for a reason!!

Although it is highly unlikley that she could get pregnant, it DOES NOT mean she is not pregnant. As the person before me says, statistically it is unlikley due to the life of a sperm, and the natural cycle of a womans eggs, but it doesnt mean she isnt pregnant.To be 100% sure, tell her to wait for her period to come, to see if it is late, or not, and also, tell her to take a pregnancy test, if she is really worried about it.If you do not want to get pregnant, do not have unprotected sex.

In reality there are only a few days within a woman's cycle that she can get pregnant, and the time during her period is the least likely. Do some research on the timing method of birth control to read more about women's cycles and the theory behind that concept. But I wouldn't be too worried about it. If she is pregnant it could be from a different time that they had sex.
